Chapter 1148: Founding Ancestor
Everyone present was stunned, and their faces were filled with terror. Their eyes all turned to the depths of the starry skies.
A powerful aura was flying across the starry skies. It was still distant, but everyone could already feel its overwhelming might.
It was so overwhelmingly powerful that it seemed capable of crushing the entire Divine Ruins.
Everyone was shocked, and they wondered who was coming.
In the sky, the Otherworld Ruler gazed in the same direction, his brows deeply furrowed, a rare grave expression on his face. Beside him, Qi Fa and the rest were also filled with confusion and apprehension.
Suddenly, a faint, ethereal phantom appeared above the Imperial Mausoleum.
As soon as the phantom materialized, the Supreme Law Seal in Ye Guan's hands trembled violently and emitted a deep, resonant hum.
Qi Fa and the others sensed something abnormal. Their expressions changed drastically, and their faces turned pale as a sheet, making them look as if they had become living corpses.
Si Wen stared at the phantom, and his face was marred with incredulity. "He's... he's incredibly powerful."
A faint, unsettling smile formed on the Multiverse Emperor's face.
When the phantom materialized, a middle-aged man dressed in an imperial robe adorned with coiling dragon patterns was revealed. His black beard flowed gracefully, and his mere presence exuded an awe-inspiring authority, striking fear into the hearts of all that were present.
When they saw him, Qi Fa and the others were left utterly dumbfounded; disbelief was etched across their faces. He was Fan Daoyuan, the founding ancestor of the Divine Ruins Empire!
How is he here? Isn't he supposed to be dead?
The experts of the Divine Ruins were filled with confusion at the sight.
The Otherworld Ruler stared intently at Fan Daoyuan, and his gaze was heavy with caution and deep-seated fear.
When Fan Daoyuan was still in power, the Otherworld City was utterly suppressed. Not only were they completely unable to challenge the Divine Ruins Empire, but they also dared not harbor even a hint of hostility toward them.
The Otherworld Ruler had never expected the founding ancestor of the Divine Ruins Empire to appear here. The events of this day were strange, shrouded in mystery and unpredictability.
At the same time, something felt off.
Fan Daoyuan's piercing gaze fell on Fan Zhaodi down below. His expression was dark and terrifying.
"You unfilial wretch!" he exclaimed, his voice booming like thunder.
Boom!
The Divine Ruins was engulfed in flames, terrifying everyone.
Ye Guan was no exception, and his shock was palpable on his face. What astonished him even more was that the Supreme Laws within him were churning, seemingly in resonance with Fan Daoyuan. řäΝȰbЕs̈
He frantically worked to suppress the Supreme Laws.
Fan Zhaodi waved her right hand, and the raging flames consuming the Divine Ruins were extinguished.
Everything returned to normalcy.
Fan Daoyuan's eyes narrowed at the sight.
Fan Zhaodi met her ancestor's gaze with a faint smile tugging at her lips. "Ancestor, as expected, you still cannot part with the Supreme Laws."
Fan Daoyuan replied with a steady voice, "You used him to draw me out."
Fan Zhaodi nodded. "Yes."
"What is it you want? To kill me and take my place?"
"What?" Fan Zhaodi asked, "Can't I do that?"
Her words sent shockwaves among the gathered experts of the Divine Ruins.
Everyone was speechless.
What is Fan Zhaodi trying to do? Kill the founding ancestor?
Fan Daoyuan sneered and remarked, "I'm the progenitor of your power. I hope you haven't forgotten that."
"You traitor!" Fan Daoyuan yelled in anger. He glared at her, equal parts furious and astonished. He hadn't expected that this descendant of his would possess such overwhelming strength.
A ferocious glint flashed in Fan Daoyuan's eyes as he stared at Ye Guan busy replacing the Supreme Laws. He opened his palm, and from it, a golden pillar of light shot skyward.
A suffocating aura then engulfed the Divine Ruins.
Moments later, golden beams of light erupted uncontrollably from the bodies of every expert in the Divine Ruins. These beams surged like tides into Fan Daoyuan's palm, causing the experts to be utterly horrified.
They realized with despair that the Supreme Laws within them were slowly being drained away.
They tried to resist, but their efforts were futile. They could only watch as their power dissipated, vanishing into Fan Daoyuan's grasp.
For the first time, they understood the cruel truth.
The truth was that they had been cultivating for someone else.
Seeing Fan Daoyuan forcibly draw upon the power of the Divine Ruins' experts, Fan Zhaodi took a step forward. She extended her right hand and clenched it.
Holding Eternity!
Boom!
A myriad of Great Daos converged on Fan Zhaodi, and waves of terrifying energy surged relentlessly toward Fan Daoyuan.
Fan Daoyuan's eyes narrowed. He extended his left hand and pressed forward.
Boom!
An invisible barrier emerged, blocking the myriad of Great Daos heading his way.
Swoosh!
Fan Zhaodi suddenly disappeared.
In response, Fan Daoyuan punched forward.
The starry skies churned and collapsed as his fist flew toward its target.
Bam!
Under everyone's astonished gaze, Fan Daoyuan was forced to retreat again.
He was suppressed once more!
Si Wen's expression darkened. Naturally, they were hoping for Fan Daoyuan's strength to prevail, as they were working against Ye Guan.
Just then, Si Wen recalled something and turned to the Multiverse Emperor.
The Multiverse Emperor was still calm and composed, and a faint smile was still plastered on his face.
Si Wen hesitated for a moment. "Multiverse Emperor, should we step in?"
The Multiverse Emperor nonchalantly replied, "No need to rush. Everything is under control."
While Fan Zhaodi was busy holding Fan Daoyuan at bay, Ye Guan was busy replacing the Supreme Laws within the Supreme Law Seal with his Guanxuan Laws.
The method of replacement was surprisingly straightforward. He just needed to integrate his Guanxuan Laws into the seal.
At this moment, Ye Guan finally understood that what was truly powerful wasn't the Supreme Laws but the Supreme Law Seal. The seal had the ability to convert laws into something tangible, enabling others to draw upon it.
Fan Daoyuan's face contorted with rage upon sensing the fact that Ye Guan was truly replacing the Supreme Laws. The Supreme Laws were the source of his strength. If they were replaced, he would be weakened.
Glancing at the composed Fan Zhaodi across from him, he spread his palm, and a golden pillar of light erupted. Then, he clenched his fist, and countless golden beams converged on him from all directions.
Once again, he began absorbing the power of the Divine Ruins' experts.
Fan Daoyuan cast a sinister look at Fan Zhaodi before unleashing a devastating punch. This punch, infused with the combined strength of all the experts in the Divine Ruins, exerted a crushing pressure that left everyone breathless.
The pressure coming from the punch suppressed Fan Zhaodi, pinning her in place.
Just as Fan Zhaodi was preparing to launch her counterattack, the Otherworld Ruler vanished into thin air. His target? It was none other than Ye Guan!
